Sheet Metal services FAQ

  • What is sheet metal fabrication?

    Sheet metal fabrication refers to the process of transforming flat metal sheets into various shapes and structures through cutting, bending, and assembling techniques. It involves the creation of precise sheet metal parts using specialized machinery and tools.

  • What types of materials are commonly used in sheet metal fabrication?

    Commonly used materials in sheet metal fabrication include stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel, copper, and brass. The material selection depends on factors such as the application, desired properties, and cost considerations.

  • What are the typical processes involved in sheet metal fabrication?

    Sheet metal fabrication processes include cutting (laser cutting, waterjet cutting, or shearing), bending (press brake forming), welding (MIG, TIG, or spot welding), and assembly (fastening, riveting, or bonding).

  • How accurate are sheet metal parts produced through fabrication?

    Sheet metal fabrication processes are capable of achieving high levels of dimensional accuracy. The precision depends on factors such as the chosen fabrication method, the equipment used, and the skill of the operators.

  • Are there any design considerations specific to sheet metal parts?

    Yes, designing for sheet metal fabrication requires attention to certain considerations. For example, engineers should account for bend radii, material thickness, and tolerances to ensure manufacturability and ease of assembly. Consulting with experienced sheet metal fabricators during the design phase can help optimize the manufacturing process.
